Song lyrics

[Nicki Minaj:]
Spirit of Marilyn callin' me, audibly,
Bawlin she, said that she would never leave,
Continued to torture me.
Telling me to come with her,
Underneath my comforter.
And she brought a gun with her
Pills and some rum with her,
Tip me on the balcony,
Telling me to jump with her.
Yeah I'm in the ghost
But I ain't doing stunts with her.
I ain't tryna be that,
Haters wanna see that.
But I got 'em aggy,
Cause I win the gold like Gabby!

[Alicia Keys:]
She's just a girl, and she's on fire,
Hotter than a fantasy, longer like a highway.
She's living in a world, and it's on fire
Feeling the catastrophe, but she knows she can fly away.

Oh, she got both feet on the ground,
And she's burning it down.
Oh, she got her head in the clouds,
And she's not backing down.

[Chorus:]
This girl is on fire,
This girl is on fire.
She's walking on fire,
This girl is on fire.

[Alicia Keys:]
Looks like a girl, but she's a flame,
So bright, she can burn your eyes,
Better look the other way.
You can try but you'll never forget her name,
She's on top of the world,
Hottest of the hottest girls say:

"Oh, we got our feet on the ground,
And we're burning it down.
Oh, got our head in the clouds,
And we're not coming down."

[Chorus:]
This girl is on fire,
This girl is on fire.
She's walking on fire,
This girl is on fire.

[Alicia Keys:]
Everybody stands, as she goes by
Cause they can see the flame that's in her eyes.
Watch her when she's lighting up the night.
Nobody knows that she's a lonely girl
And it's a lonely world.
But she gon' let it burn, baby, burn, baby.

[Nicki Minaj:]
Dear God, if you're here God,
Make the fire disappear when they stare God.
Take away my fear, when they interfere, God.
Do you fear God? Cause I feel God.
And in my backyard, that's a deer, God,
And that's a horse ranch.
And to my core fans keep reppin' me,
Do it to the death of me,
'X' in the box,
Cause ain't nobody checkin' me.

[Chorus:]
This girl is on fire,
This girl is on fire.
She's walking on fire,
This girl is on fire.

Oh, oh, oh...

She's just a girl, and she's on fire...
